"'Shedeur's biggest problem in college was running backward and taking sacks.' We've heard this repeated so many times in the media so now any time he gets sacked once, everyone thinks it was 5 sacks for -50 yards."
Since Shedeur Sanders became the Browns starting quarterback, taking sacks has not been a problem. He still has one of the lowest pressure-to-sack ratios in the NFL (14.6).
The bigger concern is the turnovers. Sanders has 8 interceptions in 5.5 games. True, some of those are not his fault (thanks, Jerry Jeudy). But limiting turnovers should still be Sanders' area of focus, which it undoubtedly is.
It's also not uncommon for a rookie QB to have a high turnover rate and low touchdown numbers:
- Trevor Lawrence had 8 INT in his first 5 career games
- Josh Allen had just 10 TD to 12 INT his rookie season
- Drake Maye threw at least 1 pick in 8/13 games last year (finished with 15 TD and 10 INT)
- Bryce Young finished with 11 TD and 10 INT as a rookie
And these guys were all first-round picks or even No. 1 overall picks.
They buried Shedeur Sanders and tried to hide him at the bottom of the depth chart but he will now be starting the rest of the season. Nobody gave him nothing, not even his coach. He earned it with faith, hard work, patience and dedication. The last shall be first……..
So you posted Christian McCaffrey’s full interview where he thanked God, but conveniently clipped Shedeur Sanders’ video to only show the last 15 seconds…leaving out the part where he thanked God…just to push the ARROGANT narrative. You truly are a piece of shit Jon!
